Ta1 Peptide Benefits
Support your Immune System and Regulate Inflammation
Thymosin alpha (Ta1), a naturally occurring thymic peptide.
Ta1 plays a key role in controlling immunity, tolerance, and inflammation. It acts on the innate immune system as an endogenous inflammatory and adaptive immune response regulator.
Studies have shown increased natural killer cell function in immunocompromised patients with auto-immune conditions or cancer.
Natural killer cells engulf viruses, bacteria, fungi, and cancer cells.
Ta1 treatment also increases glutathione, a major liver-produced antioxidant with important antiviral effects.
Importantly, it has also been shown that Ta1 helps produce regulatory T cells via IDO, inhibiting cytokine production.
This dampens the immune response to prevent an inflammatory cytokine storm.
This is important to those with autoimmune conditions in which the immune system is constantly overactive.
Patients suffering from chronic inflammation (asthma, COPD, obesity, arthritis, autoimmune conditions, cancer) are at greater risk of developing a cytokine storm than patients who do not suffer from general inflammation.
A cytokine storm is a complication brought on by a virus or bacteria that can be deadly.
The imbalanced immune system overreacts to the microbe, which causes mast cells to produce more mucus, bronchial tubes to constrict from irritation, and the production of interleukins that continually turn on the inflammatory proteins.
It is a vicious positive feedback cycle that goes out of control.
The key to preventing this is not to avoid being infected by a microbe, for that is impossible.
The key is to establish a healthy and balanced immune system so that WHEN you do get an infection, the immune system addresses it in a focused, controlled manner.
This simple injection, done in the comfort of your home, will keep your immune system strong and balanced should you be exposed to COVID-19 or any other virus. All patients who come in for the prescription will also be given inflammatory dietary guidelines.
